Ms Manders said, “As the Dance Teacher and Instructional Leader at The Berkeley Institute I am so proud to be finally taking this big step and hosting my own dance recital. I feel so blessed to achieve my dreams by opening my own school and having our first recital.
“Dance is not just my career but is also my hobby; therefore, Dance is my life. I like to think of Dance as a celebration of life and every day we dance we celebrate life! It is a total honor to expose children to this art form that I truly love.
“I have always wanted to start a professional company and travel around the world; however, in Bermuda a dance school is the first steps to starting my own company. It is such a pleasure to be training dancers and building a school through my dance perspective.”
